When I try to finish adding an existing yahoo account to thunderbird, a window is opened inside thunderbird and I can not complete the setup because cookies are not enabled in this window.

Please advise.

Can you post a screenshot? Thunderbird doesn't use cookies.

Okay, maybe it's just a misunderstanding between the two of us on cookies. Would you please post a screenshot of what you're seeing that prevents the Yahoo setup? Thanks.
